Read MoreKathleen is a great instructor and teacher and she details every step to get you to paint a rose right from the beginning which includs how to sketch a rose and from various references. I love her demos on this as most classes don't cover this part which is an important element in the whole painting process. I love the way she demos from laying the rose down on canvas to making it loose and bold. Most highly recommended !

I'll teach you the fundamentals you need to learn in order to paint your most beautiful roses ever!
Overcome the mistakes that have held you back by learning to change your approach according to my methods.
This course is full of wonderful content to help you change your approach and start painting your most beautiful and seemingly effortless roses ever. We'll focus on learning to see the shapes, because that is what it's really all about. If you can SEE IT, you can draw it, then you can paint it. You'll learn how to work from your photo references and create preliminary sketches to help you plan your paintings, resulting in better paintings.
There's also a great section on making your paintings come alive by thoughtfully choosing colors that play beautifully together. You'll learn what colors and supplies I like, but you can choose to use your own colors, and this course can be done in both oil paints and acrylic paints!
During demo videos, reference photos are placed side by side with the active demo so you can see what Kathleen sees.
Paint colors are also referenced in each video so that you can easily follow along.

This course is best for a Level 3 intermediate student who has a background in painting and some drawing.
It all begins with a sketch!
The best way to learn the characteristics of a muse is to study it. In art, there is no better way than sketching. Sketching will teach you to see shapes, contrast and angles which will lead to a better and more interesting painting. This course teaches students to gather their own reference photos, keep a sketchbook, and use their preliminary sketches from which to paint.
Here is a screenshot from one of the lessons. The reference photo is visible the entire time Kathleen is sketching.
See how much more professional your paintings begin to look once you implement careful planning into each one.
Kathleen will walk you through from photographing to sketching to your final painting.
You'll watch the videos with a split screen, making it easy to follow along.
Color palettes are listed for each demo, as well as the colors listed on the screen during videos.
You can use the color palettes suggested by Kathleen, or choose your own. Kathleen will show you how she chooses the colors for her paintings' backgrounds, making her paintings come alive with joyful energy.
Packed with useful information and helpful PDFs.
There are PDFs to help students along the way. These are downloadable and printable for easy reference.
One example is this grid, which is a great way to learn to see shapes and spacial relations between the flowers and its background.
